Blackburn Rovers are the latest club being linked with Hibs and Scotland striker Steven Fletcher.

Fletcher, 22, has been linked with a number of clubs over the last 12 months, including Spanish giants Real Madrid and Barcelona.

Middlesbrough, Newcastle United and Wigan Athletic are all said to still be keen on the player, and this could start a bidding war should Blackburn Rovers get involved.

Blackburn boss Sam Allardyce is said to be willing to meet Hibs £4m valuation of the youngster, as he looks to bolster his forward line, following the £18m departure of Roque Santa Cruz to Manchester City.
